 I have high hopes that the request for Jodi in plush chenille yarn will be liked by the 'challenger'. This idea took me far out of a comfort zone of basic yarn into a trending one. Very velvety and easy on the fingers, I think it works up nicely as long as the parts are not too small. My last hug and farewell as Jodi travels to her new home on the West coast. 

I am not regretting this gift of a challenge. This type of yarn is very squishy soft and appealing. The brands that I ended up testing this time are Bernat Baby Velvet in Chocolate, Greige and Boy Blue, and Premier Just Chenille in 3 different colors for her outfit. I used my very own Jodi crochet pattern which is sold online. So far, I have to say that the chocolate looks yummy. 

The Velvet Yarn Strikes Again! In a prior post I gave up on this yarn challenge. Still, I noticed that plush velvet yarn was getting really popular. I have to go to bat again because I took a custom request for it. Let's try Jodi Platypus this time around. Well, yarn shopping is usually the best part!
